At The Gates To Drink from the Night Itself 1. Der Widerstand [Instrumental] 2. To Drink From The Night Itself Out of ruins obscured Unveiling Stygian art Our naked and cynical stare As we drink from the night itself Eternal madness Eternal myth Reconstruction from within The tyranny of chaos Inside repression's eye In the book of dead names From skepticism born Enshrouded with our wretched hopes As we drink from the night itself Eternal madness Eternal myth Reconstruction from within Frozen resonated visions Masked in comforting lies With seducing rhythm blessed As all opposition dies Out of ruins obscured Unveiling Stygian art Our naked and cynical stare As we drink from the night itself Eternal madness Eternal myth Reconstruction from within Eternal slumber Eternal sleep Reconstruction from within As we drink from the night itself As we drink from the night itself As we drink from the night itself 3. A Stare Bound In Stone Through the fall of creation A death mask transforms the past The contours of a labyrinth emerge As dusk it clings to silent stone Dead to all future generations Let their strength now dissolve The sun to me is dark forever A nihilistic urge As death thickens in their throats Like fragments of silent fires Like fragments of silent fires The distorted hierarchies Under boiling clouds A cold stare, bound in stone Behind the curtain of dust As dusk it clings to silent stone Immortalizing the suppression Let their strength now dissolve The sun to me is dark forever A nihilistic urge As death thickens in their throats Featureless, elusive Drowning in the silent black Obsession like wildfire inhaled Like fragments of silent fires Like fragments of silent fires Like fragments of silent fires Like fragments of silent fires Like fragments of silent fires 4. Palace Of Lepers Reverberating choirs A sea of faces black A leviathan, in iron dreams entrapped From the throat of pandemonium An unrelenting scourge Bible black, archaic madness writhes The lingering Presence of Inescapable death Into the palace of lepers Citadel of disease Into the palace of lepers Fathomless the craters Fanaticism masked The phantasm, now drowning in ash Aesthetics reproducing A hierarchy intact Propaganda, blind serpent's dance The lingering Presence of Inescapable death Into the palace of lepers Citadel of disease Into the palace of lepers A clawing nightmare blind A grinning march of death A clawing nightmare blind A grinning march of death A grinning march of death Chants reverberate Through these halls The corridors of doom Chants reverberate Through these halls The corridors of doom 5. Daggers Of Black Haze Masked in merciful weakness A tribute of ritual prey The frozen surface cracks Dressed in iconic grace Bottomless the void veiled in smoke Floods the pit of dreams The martyrdom of perfection A phantom construction dead The anesthesia of repetition Let monotony and isolation reign Will our persistence fade like daggers? (Daggers) daggers of black haze Mute now, the anthems and dogmas Cynicism reproduced The reliefs watch unseen In winding and rigid shapes An ideology solidified The fragments lost in time From within inaccessible walls Their elitism starves us blind Unending eyes, they watch unseen Starving for themselves in me Masked in merciful weakness A tribute of ritual prey The frozen surface cracks Mute now, the anthems and dogmas Cynicism reproduced The reliefs they watch unseen Will our persistence fade like daggers? (Daggers) daggers of black haze (Daggers) daggers of black haze (Daggers, daggers) daggers of black haze 6. The Chasm Born of disharmonic sermons Phenomena of the deep Torn apart by phantom pains In shadows veiled, our tomb A language dead and dissonant Awakened from its sleep The ever-opening flower This pantheon of doom As we open the chasm The sleepless, ravenous void From the vortex of poisonous coldness Starving and blind, they storm Crowned with unimagined death Encircled, under siege The black impious gulfs Where no dreams reach The blind rage of our revolution As we drown in these halls Blasphemous, fathomless Manifested within these walls As we open the chasm The sleepless, ravenous void From the vortex of poisonous coldness Starving and blind, they storm Crowned with unimagined death Encircled, under siege The black impious gulfs Where no dreams reach Culture of shapeless dreams Abysmal fevered seas (Prismatic distortions) Culture of shapeless dreams (Prismatic distortions) Crowned with unimagined death (Abysmal fevered seas) Encircled, under siege The black impious gulfs (Culture of shapeless dreams) Where no dreams reach 7. In Nameless Sleep The distortion, ceremonial Apathy shaped like a cage The poisonous cauldron Emptied with feverish rage As transparency tears Through the dead, pungent air Like storms from the dying past Frozen circles of timeless despair In a blur of black wings They storm out of the past Infested with the promise of death Infested with eternal death The procession never ending The fatalistic void In oblivion cloaked Men forever shaped out of clay In blind hallucination Their irreversible truth Rituals hedonistic Resignation designed from above In a blur of black wings They storm out of the past Infested with eternal death In a blur of black wings They storm out of the past Infested with the promise of death Infested with eternal death Perfection dressed in crippled dreams Dead rhythms, sharpened to the obscene On fevered wings Awakened from our nameless sleep On fevered wings Eternal death, to the lords of the keep In a blur of black wings They storm out of the past Infested with eternal death In a blur of black wings They storm out of the past Infested with the promise of death 8. The Colours Of The Beast A hunger unleashed Annihilating black Born of crippling doom In oppressive silence masked Their truth carves a void A night that never ends Starving for the dawn Ravenous, from nightmares born In monolithic forms Dressed in the colours of the beast Stone flood Into the sinister dawn Cloaked in dust The columns wavering Words like guillotines Clawing at your solid walls On your darkness they feed Phrases cut like sharpened teeth Phrases cut like sharpened teeth Phrases cut like sharpened teeth Born of crippling doom In oppressive silence masked In monolithic forms Dressed in the colours of the beast Stone flood Into the sinister dawn Cloaked in dust The columns wavering blind Dressed in the colours of the beast 9. A Labyrinth Of Tombs The pantheons blind Ravaged from thirst They tear through the skies Through the blackest of nights Violating rhythms Far beneath dead waves The shards of our culture Abandoned and arcane Our grave is the darkness Our own oblivion The silence pregnant With a labyrinth of tombs The ghost of man Haunts our ravaged tomb In this labyrinth of our doom Disharmonic rapture From forbidden depths The cabbalistic scriptures Engraved eternal death And the pantheons blind Still tear through the blackest of nights The ghost of man Haunts our ravaged tomb In this labyrinth of our doom Hunger The ghost of man Eternal Haunts our ravaged tomb In this labyrinth of our doom Hunger The pantheons Eternal Ravaged and blind Hunger A labyrinth of tombs Hunger They tear through the skies Eternal Through the blackest of nights Hunger A labyrinth of tombs Hunger They tear through the skies Hunger Through the blackest of nights Hunger A labyrinth of tombs This labyrinth of our doom This labyrinth of our doom 10. Seas Of Starvation The voiceless, the blind The cracked mosaic of the end Fragmented, torn In rigid shapes they descend In cataclysmic darkness The primal blackened void Shades of black they swarm Weathered monuments they will sink Into the seas of starvation Forever swallowed up in our wake The tempest released Streets they hang in the abyss A sunset burning through Through the waves of a darkened lens Unspeakable The fallen pledges The never ending deep Shades of black they swarm Weathered monuments they will sink Into the seas of starvation Forever swallowed up in our wake Insidious, shapeless In archaic circles Beneath a thousand-faced moon Beneath a thousand-faced moon A phantasmagoria of the macabre A phantasmagoria of the macabre A phantasmagoria of the macabre The voiceless, the blind The cracked mosaic of the end Fragmented, torn In rigid shapes they descend Shades of black they swarm Weathered monuments they will sink Into the seas of starvation Forever swallowed in our wake Into the seas of starvation Into the seas of starvation 11. In Death They Shall Burn A spawn of the alienation The unspeakable black Our of the portal of guilt The ominous, crippling weight The language of the blood In a fever black Monumental and cold The earth now belongs to the dead Even in death they shall burn Their naked, celestial flesh From the throat of the beast The architects of the end In blasphemous slumber Demoralizing doubts Reverberating the mythos The earth now belongs to the dead Blinding ceremonial fires Through the darkest of voids Irreversible dogmas In hallucination crowned In death they shall burn The vortex eternal In death they shall burn The earth now belongs to the dead Even in death they shall burn A sea of faces black Out of the fathomless depths The architects of the end In blasphemous slumber Demoralizing doubts Reverberating the mythos The earth now belongs to the dead Blinding ceremonial fires Through the darkest of voids Irreversible dogmas In hallucination crowned In death they shall burn The vortex eternal In death they shall burn The earth now belongs to the dead Abandon the ruins of man The wastelands we left behind Abandon the ruins of man In death they shall burn The vortex eternal In death they shall burn In death they shall burn The vortex eternal In death they shall burn The earth now belongs to the dead 12. The Mirror Black To perish in dreamless sleep Dragged through the waste Doomed, from arrogance blind Fragmentation of all form Celestial breath Disguises lost Clawing at harmonies dead Eyes drained by time Beneath dead waves Our of the mirror black Through aeons, crowned in death And phosphorous doom Insidious, dominion black A labyrinth of tombs As the sentences swarm In permanent light The reign of the feverish dream Hearts of darkness Beating fast Our of the mirror nlack As the sentences swarm In permanent light Out of the mirror black Out of the mirror black
